Advanced Medical Balloons Inc. – Reshaping fecal management

Performance,
the way it should be

The hygh-tec system is a novel, next-generation fecal management system (FMS) that dramatically improves fecal sealing performance and safety, making fecal management a safer, more efficient, cost-effective and respectful experience for everyone.

“Code Brown.”
No more.

The problem with traditional fecal management systems is that they leak. And when an FMS leaks, it triggers a problematic cascade of increased burden, risk and cost. The hygh-tec system fundamentally changes all of that, by minimizing leakage and the need for reactive cleaning.

Relieves staff burden, improves workflow efficiency
Lowers risk of HAI, HAPI and IAD
Reduces total cost of care for patients with fecal incontinence
Elevates patient comfort and dignity

Better care, reduced total cost

From minimizing the risk of cross contamination and potential rectal complications, to reducing expenses for linens, cleaning supplies and PPE, and the burden of reactive nursing time. hygh-tec enables a higher standard of care for patients with fecal incontinence, at a reduced total cost of managing fecal incontinence.

First-generation

hygh-tec

PUR + Air
The hygh-tec
difference

The hygh-tec system uses innovative polyurethane (PUR) material, air inflation (rather than water), and a novel dual dumbbell shape for optimal sealing that’s lighter, more stable and more comfortable than traditional silicone devices.

Control the spread, reduce the stay

By minimizing fecal contact with patient skin and any open wounds, hygh-tec reduces the risk of infections and extended hospital stays.

Fewer skin breakdowns
Less risk of cross-contamination
Improved Medicare-mandated metrics: HAPI, HAI and HAC

Less reactive cleanup, more time for care

hygh-tec enables your staff to spend less effort on custodial tasks and more on core patient care. It’s a better use of staff resources improving efficiency and quality of care.

Fewer unplanned cleaning episodes
Lower expenses for linens and cleaning supplies
Improved staff morale and efficiency

Dignity matters

The value of preserving patients’ dignity in their most vulnerable time can’t be quantified. But by enabling that added measure of respect both for staff and patients, the hygh-tec system can have a real impact on the patient experience, employee satisfaction, and hospital reputation.
